    Filipendula ulmaria ‘Aurea’

    £6.50

    Potsize - 1L

    Filipendula ulmaria 'Aurea'. Delightful small meadowsweet with bright butter yellow foliage and fluffy cream flowers. Neat and small, ideal at the edge of a water feature. Prefers a moisture retentive soil. Will grow in sun or shade, but it can scorch in full sun during the summer, especially if the soil dries. In shade it will retain its colouring all year, which is more lemony in shade than the brassier colour of the leaves in sun. 30-45cm.

    (Filipendula hexapetala 'Flore Pleno') I love this double form of meadowsweet. It has a gentle elegance with its coral-bronze buds opening to clusters of creamy white, tiny double 'roses' all carried on bronzy wiry stems. Attractive rosettes of dark ferny foliage (a bit like Achillea foliage all beefed up). I can just imagine this in a country brides bouquet, long before gypsophila was ever invented. 45cm high in flower in mid-summer. Unlike most Meadowseet this comes from upland chalk, and whilst not being a water lover, neither does it appreciate drought . As to alkalinity it seems remarkably indifferent.

Dorset Perennials – plants direct from the heart of Dorset.

At Dorset Perennials you will find a husband and wife team, Dawn and Martin, who have been plantsmen and nurserymen for nearly 25 years. Our nursery, situated in the North of Dorset close to the Somerset border, is full of the plants we love. There’s no overall theme, just an eclectic mix of perennials that, for one reason or another, we consider well worth growing. We have plants for shade, plants for sun, plants for wildlife and a few more just because. In short all the perennials you would ever need to make a garden full of colour throughout the year and full of the plants you need to make it hum with wildlife. We’ve tried to make this website full of inspirational colour and easy to use. The shop page has a nifty plant selector sidebar which can be used to filter our plants by size, colour season and so forth to help you quickly pin down the right plant for a particular spot. We’ve added picture pages showing plant associations to inspire you, or if you need a little advice just give us a call.
